PrintAs random as this award is, it's nice to see Joe get some recognition he truely deserves. He has been one of the top defensive catchers in the game for a few years now, and it's good to see him get some recognition. Hopefully, this will put the final nail in the "move Joe to third base" coffin.
So, let me get this straight, Joe has won two batting titles, something no AL catcher has ever done even once, including leading all of baseball in batting average, something no catcher anywhere has ever done, twice finished in the top three in OBP in the AL, AND now won a gold glove.
The only thing Joe has to do now is turn 26. What an amazing player. Way to go Joe!
